One of two men wanted in connection with early morning shooting and chase in Detroit has been arrested. It happened on the city's west side.

officers were called to the area of Birwood and Chalfonte (near M-10 and Livernois) around 5 a.m. Saturday after receiving a call about shots being fired. But when they arrived, officers found a minivan crashed into a tree and saw two black males take off running through a vacant lot.

No shots were fired at police or at the suspects. A perimeter had been set up to look for the two men who fled. Again one of the men has been arrested, the other is still being sought. Michigan State Police are assisting with K-9 units.
